“Rain in Red” is a made-to-order, hand-painted artwork by Greek artist Athanasios Liarokapis, created on a reclaimed wooden board.
The composition depicts a woman walking through the rain beneath a white umbrella. Her red skirt and blue bag emerge against the muted, weathered background, conveying quiet movement, femininity, persistence and inner strength.
IMPORTANT — MADE TO ORDER
The artwork shown in the photographs is Version 1 of a maximum of 4 individually handmade versions. The photographed original has already been sold outside Etsy and is no longer available.
By purchasing this listing, the buyer commissions Version 2 of the series.
The new artwork will follow the same composition, colour palette, approximate dimensions and artistic character. However, it will not be an identical reproduction. The natural grain, weathering and shape of the reclaimed wood, together with the entirely handmade painting process, will create visible individual variations.
Photographs of the completed new artwork will be sent to the buyer before dispatch.
TECHNIQUE AND MATERIALS
The painting is created on a narrow reclaimed wooden board whose existing grain, marks and irregularities become an integral part of the composition.
The figure and surrounding atmosphere are painted by hand using acrylic colours. The surface is protected with a water-based matte varnish containing wax, helping preserve the colours and wooden surface from dust and normal indoor exposure.
No printed image, transfer or digital reproduction is used.
